Hi folks --
Does anyone have any background information on "Man of Constant Sorrow?" I
know it's public domain but the song has a decidedly 20th century feel to
it. The Stanley Brothers seem to have the definitive version, but I think I
recall that there are earlier recordings. Was it always so jaunty? We have
a slowed-down version on our mp3.com site: http://www.mp3.com/mountainsoul.
Can anyone provide information as to this song's origins?

I'm trying to make sure Man of Constant Sorrow is public domain. Does anyone know where I can definitely prove this?
Thanks!
